Big R

Yesterday Mr. Maxx man and I went shopping to pick up a few things, like dog food and motorcycle parts.  I have never put Maxx in the shopping cart because I have become a little bit of a germaphobic since becoming a mom, and I can just imagine all the yuck that is on those carts.  We had to stop by Big R and as I grabbed the shopping cart fumbling with Maxx in my arms I thought, "If you can't trust Big R to have fairly clean shopping carts, what store can you trust?".  So I broke down and placed the little bug in the shopping cart.  HE LOVED IT!!  He wouldn't stop smiling, he loved the bumps and holding onto the bar.  He didn't even get into stuff, he just smiled and looked around.  We even got to check out the baby chickens (which made me SO excited to get chickens one day).  I snapped this picture of him looking so proud in his shopping cart. 

Some other firsts that happened yesterday:

   1. I lost Maxx, I quickly walked into the kitchen and when I walked back into the living room he was gone.  I found him in my bedroom, he is getting speedy!

   2. I caught Maxx chasing Hemi.  I noticed he kept stopping, sitting up, and then shooting off like a dart.  I watched him for a minute and realized he was chasing Hemi around.  He would start his crawl, get close, she would see him coming and move, he would sit up, she would stop, and he would go after her again.  They did this for about 10 minutes, very cute.

   3.  I had a cup of Yerba Mate, possibly the first cup since we moved from California, DELICIOUS!
